The Terrifier movie series follows the sadistic "Art the Clown" as he brutally murders his victims, drawing viewers into a world of extreme horror.
The first film, Terrifier (2016), is notable for its relentless violence and practical effects, showcasing a raw and visceral approach to horror. While it received praise for its intensity and David Howard Thornton's maniacally chilling performance as Art, there was a lack of depth in character development and plot, which detracted from the overall experience.
In Terrifier 2 (2022), the story "attempts" to expand on Art’s mythology and introduces new characters, but some viewers (us, we mean us) felt the lengthy runtime and non-sensical plot left it a plodding mess. The film's ambition to blend horror with dark humor has been met with mixed reactions, and while we appreciated its creativity, it feels very uneven.
Terrifier 3 (2024) expands even more on Art's origins and RE-introduces us to Vicky, who, in our opinion upstages Art in every scene. Filled with great kill scenes, gore, and a little more of a cohesive plot it still runs a bit too long and could shed about 20 minutes of its runtime. It is a much more superior sequel in our opinion.
Overall, the series has carved a niche for itself in the slasher genre, appealing to fans of extreme horror, but its reliance on graphic violence along with narrative incoherence may alienate more mainstream audiences.

Happy holidays! This is our special (and first) holiday episode where we discuss three newer Christmas-themed horror films:
It's a Wonderful Knife
Christmas Bloody Christmas
The Sacrifice Game
"After a young great white shark finds its way into a sea-themed park managed by Calvin Bouchard (Louis Gossett Jr.), workers try to capture it. But the facility's attempt to keep the shark in captivity has dire consequences: A much larger mother shark appears in search of its offspring. Among those who must battle the angry aquatic killing machine are marine biologist Kathryn Morgan (Bess Armstrong), her co-worker Mike Brody (Dennis Quaid) and a pair of friendly dolphins."

In this episode we discuss some pretty cool horror films we've watched over the past few weeks to include Talk to Me, When Evil Lurks, and Totally Killer. We also talk about horror rules and world building. When a killer has no rules and can do anything, is it fun or boring (case in point Art the Clown from Terrifier)?

Is gore the only factor needed to make a horror movie a horror? Tune in and find out!
